But this won't fix the originally cited error he's getting, it'll just let him get SMART information from the drive; and also make it possible to issue smartctl -t long to do an extended offline test on all drives. I forget if smartmontools 5.43 includes update-smart-drivedb command. If so, using that is worth a shot. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
